is there a way to use Nix as a C++ lib in a separate project? Pretty easy to do so. Just needs pkg-config integration in your build system. I assume you are going to use bazel? | 15:44:21 |
| fzakaria | No; i'm happy to use Meson, Cmake or w/e.
(Bazel would be cool though)
Having a nix derivation that builds it even cooler. | 15:48:42 |
| fzakaria | (I'm not familiar with pkg-config)
One more question: How does one run a particular flake check only.
I'm trying to validate a check that is failing | 15:49:12 |
| fzakaria | nix build -f flake.nix checks.x86_64-linux.nix-fetchers-tests-run
error: attribute 'checks' in selection path 'checks.x86_64-linux.nix-fetchers-tests-run' not found
